    Ryukakusan is a great companion for people who use their voice for long periods. My job requires communicating with clients, so I often talk a lot throughout the day, and my throat can easily feel dry or uncomfortable. Taking one packet is a convenient way to soothe the discomfort. It’s also good for teachers to keep on hand. They even released a mango flavor, which makes me curious about how it actually tastes, but I prefer the classic mint flavor.

    Ryukakusan is one of the medicines I always buy when I visit a drugstore in Japan. I usually get the mint or peach flavor. When my throat feels a little dry and itchy, I take one packet with water. It makes my throat feel cool, and after a while, it doesn't feel as uncomfortable. But this is still medicine, so anyone considering buying it should make sure it's suitable for them and avoid taking too much.

    Ryukakusan Direct is a popular Japanese throat-care product made with herbal ingredients. The granules dissolve instantly in your mouth and can be taken without water, making them convenient on the go. They provide a cool, soothing sensation and help relieve throat dryness, itchiness, and discomfort from talking or using your voice too much. The flavor is mild and not irritating.

    The individual packets are easy to carry, making them handy for work, travel, or changing seasons. They're a popular souvenir from Japan and a useful everyday throat-care essential.

    I recently mentioned this campaign to one of the ladies at the company and asked if they had any products they’d recommend, so I’d have something to write about.

    She enthusiastically shared that the blue one has a cool minty feel and helps soothe a sore throat, while the pink one is peach-flavored, which makes it taste better and also helps relieve throat discomfort.

    At home, though, we don’t use this version. We use the more traditional one that comes in a metal tin. My grandma used to love giving it to me because I often had sore throats. She would use a tiny spoon and pour it right into my mouth, so I actually have a bit of childhood trauma about Ryukakusan lol
